Plans call for a 5/8th inch wide by 1 inch tall, one piece gunwale, attached to the outside of the sheer plank. We decided to rip 3/8th inch strips and have both an outer and inner gunwale, to create a handhold. Ripped the pieces on a De WALT portable table saw.

We wanted to use a #10 screw because it had more meat on the screw, to hold the inner and outer gunwale together, but all we had were one inchers, and they stuck out a bit. We fixed that with a belt sander
Gunwales taking their position. The outers are full length, inners come up to either side of the cooler
